Description: Most northerly schoolhouse in Michigan is this near snowbound building at Copper Harbor. Taught by the teachers, Mr. and Mrs. Douglas Mills, the children of the institution are hardy and like their one-room school. The Harbor, too, has gained much favorable publicity because of the presence of the structure in the region. About 17 youngsters are in attendance at the schoolhouse now but the early fall enrollment was 23. Some of these have departed because of the cessation of tourist activities in early fall.
